so as you can see as you can read no
an entrepreneur is an innovator when it
runs out of ideas
so are you an
entrepreneur are you a
innovator and you never runs out of
ideas
what do you say about yourself what do
you think about yourself
as an entrepreneur your idea is just
like a will a giant will and it
never stops why because
as an entrepreneur you need to
have many lots
plenty of ideas
to innovate okay next
so as an entrepreneur an entrepreneur is
a
creative artist no
so as an artist you need to possess as
creative ideas creative
thinking so how can you make
a waste an art
how can you transform trash into an art
no
can you make a battle an empty bottle
into something
no so you need to be like
a god which creates nothing

attributes next an entrepreneur is an

reality
so are you able to turn your dreams
into reality because if you wanted to be
an entrepreneur
you need to have this kind of

of determinism which turns your
dreams your goals your visions into a
reality so what else an
entrepreneur does not grow old well they
say
age is just a number no aging
growing old aging is not just a physical
manifestation no it
an entrepreneur does not grow old means
your mind is always as
young as a child why because you need to
be creative
you need to be fond of amazement
amusement
you will be able to think about what
will makes them happy and
satisfied so as i said
no small things are the most enjoyable
things we can ever have
no if we're just to look at it you know
in
its very surface i don't make papa say
say what will make you
happy and sometimes small things
makes us happy no what makes me happy if
someone gives me a lollipop
who worth what which worth one peso
i am happy why because someone remembers
me
no someone makes a lollipop for me
no buy a lollipop for me so
as an entrepreneur you do not grow old
you always have a child heart a
child's mind right next
as an entrepreneur has bruises and scars
all over because of
the risks we are taking no in this
life's course no so
we must be enduring we must endure all
pains
we should be enduring we should endure
all pains
we should wear so uh not not
so not where we should
saw we should see ourselves no bearing
bruises and scars all over why
you cannot make things perfectly just
one click no we are always tempt
to fail we are always subject to
correction
that is why there are bruises there are
scars
there are failures why because we always
fail
and that failure leads into
perfection no so do not give up
so as an entrepreneur you should be
enduring
no you should have those bruises and
scars
so those bruises and scars are
testimonies
that you are trying your very best
to be an entrepreneur you are not giving
up
and you are making your dreams into
reality and lastly
an entrepreneur is a compassionate
human being no so
entrepreneurship is not just about
